    Sgt. (R) Daniel Cowart is presented the Distinguished Service Cross during a retreat ceremony conducted in his honor on March 20 on Fort Hood's Cooper Field. Chris Widell, a friend of Cowart's who helped during his recovery, pinned the medal on Cowart's uniform. According to the citation for the award, in 2007 in Iraq, an insurgent his team encountered was wearing a suicide vest, and "Without hesitation and with utter disregard for his safety, Sgt. Cowart maneuvered under fire and engaged the insurgent in hand-to-hand combat." (Photo by Maj. Carson Petry, 2ABCT, 1CD Public Affairs)

    Two U.S. Army soldiers in dress uniforms are engaged in a formal military ceremony, with one soldier seated in a wheelchair receiving or transferring what appears to be a cremation urn on a base. The female soldier on the left, identified by her name tape as 'CARTER,' holds the lower portion of the urn while the male sergeant in a cavalry-style hat holds the upper portion. The solemn nature of the exchange and the presence of the urn suggest this is a memorial or funeral ceremony.
